For her feature film directorial debut, filmmaker and star Susie Yankou delivers one of 2024's greatest discoveries - a sweet, funny, raunchy, poignant film about the true meaning of friendship and family. The film is aided by the strong chemistry between cast members, with Yankou casting her real-life best friend Sarah Khasrovi as Esther.

SISTERS follows twenty-something best friends Lou and Esther. Growing up without sisters, Lou and Esther consider themselves to be each other's "chosen sisters." Their co-dependent bliss is rudely interrupted when Lou's father unexpectedly dies, and she learns she has a very real half-sister. As Lou becomes closer to her impossibly chic half-sister, she must redefine what that loaded F word-- family-- means to her.
